Rinku Singh Offers Apology for Shattering Glass with Explosive Six in 2nd T20I Against South Africa In a sensational performance during the second T20I against South Africa on Tuesday, Rinku Singh achieved his maiden T20I fifty. Stepping up to the plate when India was in a precarious position, Rinku delivered a stunning unbeaten 68 off 39 balls, propelling India to a total of 180 for seven in 19.3 overs. 

However, a six he hit caught everyone's attention, as it shattered the glass window of the commentary box. During a BCCI.tv interaction, Rinku, expressing innocence, apologized for the unintentional act, stating, "I didn't know my hit broke the glass. Sorry for that."
